THE COKE CROWS AT MIDNIGHT
When Kao Yu-bao was a child, he worked for a landlord. This landlord was especially sly and greedy. He made the farmhands work very hard, and gave them little to eat. Naturally they hated him.
Now this landlord had a cock. The cock had a strange habit. It did not crow at dawn, but at midnight. Every time it began to crow, the landlord would shout: “Get up, you lazy-bones! Get up and go to work.” So the farmhands had a deep hatred for both the landlord and his cock.
Once, at midnight, Kao Yu-bao saw the landlord steal into the courtyard. There the man began to crow, just like a cock. So that was his trick!
When Kao Yu-bao told the other farmhands what he had seem, they were very angry and decided to teach the landlord a lesson.
So the next night, as soon as the landlord stole into the courtyard, Kao Yu-bao cried out, “Stop thief! Stop thief!”
Immediately all the farmhands ran out. They knocked the “thief” down and gave him a good beating. After that, the cock no longer crowed at midnight.
